There's only one soldering tip available and it is too large for the circuit board work that I do. I replaced it with this unit: https://www.xtronicusa.com/The-Remarkable-%E2%80%A2-Triple-LED-Illuminating-%E2%80%A2-X-Tronic-1010-PRO-ST-65-W-Soldering-Iron-5-Extra-Solder-Tips-0-99-Min-Sleep-Func-Digital-Calibration-Func-C-F-Conversion-Brass-Sponge-Cleaning-Flux-p232997902
Are there any compatible replacement tips available?
